For one/two-semester, undergraduate/graduate-level courses in Systems Engineering in departments of Civil Engineering, Chemical, Electrical, Environmental, Mechanical, and Industrial Engineering, Urban Planning, Architecture, Construction Management.
Based on the reality that today's engineers need a broad range of decision-making skills, this unique text draws together-into a single comprehensive volume-all the fundamental principles of systems analysis (both hard and soft systems), economics (particularly microeconomics), probability, and statistics that engineering students need to develop a rich, multifaceted perspective from which to tackle-and solve-complex engineering problems. The emphasis throughout is on presenting the fundamental concepts and their practical engineering applications, unobscured by complicated mathematics. Coverage is broad-based and applicable for students in practically all branches of engineering, not just civil engineering.
